Masks

Skin care masks also offer benefits for the mind, giving you a chance to relax and unwind while nourishing your skin.read more about masks » | find answers to your skin care questions »

Some facial and body skin care masks are developed with specific skin types in mind and are intended for use on an ongoing basis to keep the skin in good health. Women (and men) with oily and congested complexions can benefit from purifying masks, which use clays, muds and other ingredients to draw oil out of the pores. For dry skin, moisturizing masks can leave behind a large dose of hydration to reduce symptoms of dryness like flaking and roughness. Skin care masks are available to help soothe skin that is chronically sensitive and to balance combination skin to reduce the prominence of oily or dry patches on the complexion.

In addition to skin care masks produced for general skin type, beauty brands also develop masks for specific dermatological concerns. Anti-aging masks are designed to reduce the prominence of signs of aging, such as fine lines, wrinkles and sagging skin tissue. Brightening masks help to revive the appearance of dull skin and can be used to address skin discoloration like melasma and age spots. Acne masks are made to promote the healing of existing blemishes and to decrease the chances of subsequent breakouts occurring. Some masks are developed specifically for one area of the body, such as the eye area, the lips, the neck or the décolletage.
